IPL 2024: Travis Head, Shahbaz Ahmed & Abhishek Sharma Fireworks Propel SRH To Gigantic 266/7
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma brought an out-of-the-world hurricane of ultra-aggressive batting by smashing 24 boundaries in their 131-run opening stand off just 38 balls to rattle Delhi Capitals as Sunrisers Hyderabad smashed a gigantic 266/7 in the first match of IPL 2024 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday.
On a placid pitch, Head (82 off 39 balls) and Abhishek (46 off 12 balls) left everyone in the stands breathless and speechless with their flurry of impeccable strokeplay and establishing multiple records for fun to help SRH make 125-0 in power-play, thus setting a new record for the highest power-play score in T20 cricket, including in the IPL.
After being hammered in power-play, Kuldeep Yadav (4-55) and Axar Patel (1-29) helped DC come back in the match as SRH went from 131/0 to 151/4. Handy contributions from Shabhaz Ahmed (59 not out off 29 balls) and Nitish Kumar Reddy (37 off 27 balls) ensured SRH posted a massive total yet again, while hitting 22 sixes and equalling their own record of most sixes hit in an IPL match.
